- 20' Feyenoord Rotterdam started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 20.
- 25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering AZ that had 315 games and scored 593 goals.

- 32' Goal! Zico Buurmeester scores his 8 goal in 315 matches.
- 37' Both keepers have barely been tested. AZ and Feyenoord Rotterdam are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 42' Feyenoord Rotterdam looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Nacho Ferri scoring 1 goals.
- 47' AZ is showing some good football. However, AZ are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

- 75' Time for substitution for AZ. Kristijan Belic is replaced by Mexx Meerdink.
- 76' Another substitution for Feyenoord Rotterdam to replace Ayase Ueda by Julian Carranza on 76 minute.
- 79' Controversy at the stadium! Ramiz Zerrouki argues furiously but the card stands.
- 81' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Wouter Goes.
- 84' Fresh legs for Feyenoord Rotterdam! Ibrahim Osman comes on to replace Anis Moussa.
- 87' Jayden Addai is replacing Wouter Goes for the AZ side.
- 90' Julian Carranza picks up a card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
